kirk is usually fine, but he just wasn't very good today. fowler is a dud of a play by play guy, but he's much better than rece davis (who apparently he was in competition with for the slot).
verne and gary are the best duo out there (although i liked gary a lot more when he wasn't such an SEC blowhard). nessler and blackledge are very good too.
i really miss the joel meyers, dave lapham, and knoxy trio.
